Good for training, but very annoying
Qndrez
This app has a lot of great exercises, but it’s very annoying. Its constantly asking me to login, and after I finally capitulated and made an account I had no interest in, now its spamming me to invite my friends. Why, I really must wonder, does it care who I invite. I’m forced to conclude that its harvesting email addresses to sell. This must be the price of “free”. I would rather pay $5 then be nagged as much as this app nags. Aside from that, it’s good at what it does. My only complaint is that the criteria for graduating a goal is too easy. Especially for interval identification. You only need to get 9 of 10 right to complete a goal, and it’s pretty easy to get there if you get lucky, even without having mastered the intervals being tested. In fact, the tests get probabilistically easier as you go, not harder. Simple example: you start the first test knowing nothing. Then you master Unison vs Major Third, now you’re on to the next test which add Perfect Fifth. It’s going to ask a mix of questions, some of which include material you’ve already mastered, so it’s not even testing the newest material. Fast forward a few more tests and now it’s asking you about 5 intervals and you already know 4 of them. In 10 questions, you have a 10% chance of never even getting tested on the new interval. Compare that to the start when you knew nothing, then every question was a relevant test.
Latest update has bugs

The latest update from last week has a big where notes don’t turn off when doing interval training. Seems to only happen during harmonic intervals. About 10-15% of the time, one of the notes won’t turn off (won’t cease to sound). Makes identifying the next intervals kinda hard when one of the previous notes is still ringing. It will sometimes ring through the next 4 or 5 intervals. I love this app, but this latest update needs to address that bug!
Great for Aural Skills training at all levels

I love this app both for my own training and also for my students. You can customize the exercises to fit your level from very beginning to advanced (I have a master’s degree in music, for perspective.) Only complaint is that the sound quality is not the best and it’s a little buggy sometimes. Also, it would be nice if chord qualities could be drilled with inversions rather than just in root position. Still very, very useful.

This is a great app. It helped me to identify intervals that I tend to mis hear. Because it allows you to choose your intervals you can work with progressions large or small according to your skill level Great app!
Highly recommended!

Where has this app been all my life! I wish I had this app when I was taking aural training classes at university.
Very cool!

My band director at school recommended this app to me and so far it’s pretty helpful!
Every Musician should do this.

It’s very good but there’s a little too many repeated notes.

This is as good as it gets for free. I don't actually see a paid app being much better. Thank this developer. This app can change your life if you love music and want to better understand it.
